Table Turning Relegation Tease

There was a buzz in the air 
About Astin’s upcoming weekend affair 
A Friday night match 
Where Astin was such a catch 
Lured in with bait 
Wolves prowling looking great 
But alas a mistake 
A correction needed to make 
Someone wanted cake 
Decided to change plans to an afternoon luncheon 
Wolves and Astin hiring catering for the munch on 
Bags were packed at the Canary’s pad 
Waiting for a downtown cab 
Going to a positive place 
Maybe a championship to build a successful case 
When it heard 
From a news worthy credible bird 
Hornets did not distance themselves from the demotion third 
Apparently a few glasses of Claret wine 
Relaxed the stingers at the time 
When the clock struck seventy three 
Hornets grabbed the honey for a spot of tea 
In the ball it went 
After the purple and red posted it sent
One to nothing 
Shutting them out which was something 
Leaving the relegation decision tight 
Making the next footbally month a competitive fight 
Right?
